Solution Studio Product Insights Agent
Solution Studio
Solution Studio Catalog Generator
Demo catalogs that took days of sourcing arrive in minutes, with imagery and a mapping into the target system.
Describe the catalog you need and it invents the products, shoots the images, and maps them to a target schema.
What the agent does
Takes a plain-language brief for a catalog and invents the products to fill it, producing each item's data and its imagery without further direction.

01
The problem
Why this exists
Every demo, integration test, and reference implementation needs a product catalog, and nobody has one to hand. Real catalogs cannot be redistributed, and the public sample sets are small, stale, and instantly recognizable.

So the data gets made by hand, which is slow, or scraped, which is a licensing problem. Either way the images are the part that stops people, because a catalog without photography does not look like a catalog and cannot be used to show anything.
There is a subtler failure. A model asked for realistic products reaches for real, currently trading companies, which is not acceptable in demo data that ships inside a published reference implementation.
02
Outcomes
What this demonstrates
- A prompt such as "12 minimalist ceramic vases, $40 to $120" returns the items, priced and described, in one pass.
- Every product gets a generated photograph, post-processed so the background is a true white rather than the few units off that models reliably produce.
- Brand names are omitted by default. Turning them on produces an invented house brand and never a real company, so the output can be published.

- The same catalog exports into the shape a target system expects, previewed against a real product before it runs.
What you would add to ship it
- A commerce backend. This is a local tool for producing demo catalogs and is not one.

How it works
Architecture
The server is a small set of routes on Hono, run through TypeScript directly with no build step. The interface is one plain HTML file with no framework and no bundler. Products are flat JSON files on disk, one per category, in the shape a search index returns rather than in a database.

All model calls go through one file. That is a deliberate boundary rather than a convention: the local interface's own routes are unauthenticated, so models and routes are configuration while endpoints and keys are environment, and the split is what keeps an unauthenticated route from being able to redirect spend. User-supplied URLs are checked against private address ranges, and every redirect hop is rechecked.
The export engine maps catalog fields onto a target schema through dotted paths, array grouping, transforms, and computed fields, then emits JSON alongside a zip of the referenced images. The engine itself is deterministic and does no model work at export time.
A separate catalog API lets another service read the catalog directly, without depending on this project's own front end. Consumers only read through it; its one write path is an authenticated pair of image actions, generating or removing a product's image.
